To know user list in the site

[JPrasanna Venkatesan]

I have configured LDAP for authentication.

1. When a new user is authenticated against LDAP? Will that user be created in the site?
2. How to know the user list in the whole trac site? Admin page doesn't have User List page even for 'admin' user.
3. How to know what are all the users associated with a project?

Are you authenticating your users with LDAP on the front-end? Apache?

You can list users from the command line with the "session list" command:

https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracAdmin

You also have to authorize the users by granting them permissions using the TracAdmin tool or the permissions admin page.

Users are often managed using TracAccountManager, but I don't know which of the LDAP integration plugins are usable:

https://trac-hacks.org/wiki/AccountManagerPlugin

Maybe this one:

https://trac-hacks.org/wiki/LDAPAcctMngrPlugin

This can be really tricky though if you continue to authenticate on the front-end. In that case, TracAccountManager is just a view of the list of users. This is in contrast to delegating authentication to the plugin.

I don't know of a cookbook to make all this work, so it might require a lot of trial and error, unless someone here can post some guidance.
